Peter Price@petedp.bsky.social · 2mo ago📣 Searching for a PostDoc! 📣 Soon to be moving to San Sebastian, Spain, as @georgiamneuro.bsky.social starts her new position 🎉. Looking for a remote/hybrid position within ecoevo. Broad interests in sexual selection, mutation rates, genomic conflicts and gametogenesis. Get in touch!
@orisshenyan.bsky.social and me are happy to share our most recent preprint - we find that prior knowledge protects high-level perception from low-level visual deficits common in healthy ageing. @tessamdekker.bsky.social @mlisi.bsky.social www.biorxiv.org/content/10.6...

Single-cell consequences of X-linked meiotic drive in stalk-eyed flies
Author summary Meiotic drivers, a class of selfish gene, are frequently located on sex chromosomes and have dramatic impacts on gamete development. However, our understanding of their molecular conseq...

Thrilled to see this monumental work in @thelancet.bsky.social! A single subretinal injection led to staggering improvements in nearly blind children, while behavioural and EEG data from our lab reveal a dramatic boost in function and cortex activity. A major leap for vision restoration! t.ly/fvdQy
Gene therapy in children with AIPL1-associated severe retinal dystrophy: an open-label, first-in-human interventional study
Our findings indicate that young children with AIPL1-related retinal dystrophy benefited substantially from subretinal administration of rAAV8.hRKp.AIPL1, with improved visual acuity and functional vi...
